I want to play a .wav file in Python 3.4. Additonally, I want python to play the file rather than python open the file to play in VLC, media player etc..
As a follow up question, is there any way for me to combine the .wav file and the .py file into a standalone exe.
Ignore the second part of the question if it is stupid, I don't really know anything about compiling python.
Also, I know there have been other questions about .wav files, but I have not found one that works in python 3.4 in the way I described.
I fixed the problem by using the module pyaudio, and the module wave to read the file.
I will type example code to play a simple wave file.
import wave, sys, pyaudio
wf = wave.open('Sound1.wav')
p = pyaudio.PyAudio()
chunk = 1024
stream = p.open(format =
p.get_format_from_width(wf.getsampwidth()),
channels = wf.getnchannels(),
rate = wf.getframerate(),
output = True)
data = wf.readframes(chunk)
while data != '':
stream.write(data)
data = wf.readframes(chunk)
Using pyaudio
you may get incorrect playback due to speed, consider instead:
sudo apt-get install python-pygame
Windows:
choco install python-pygame
?
def playSound(filename):
pygame.mixer.music.load(filename)
pygame.mixer.music.play()
import pygame
pygame.init()
playSound('hellyeah.wav')
